258 Who Locked Her Up? 8 (1/2)

Caught it!

Shi Guang was ecstatic, but before she knew it, it dropped.

She frowned. ”How could it drop!”

Standing beside her, Lu Yanchen looked over with a lazy amusement on his face, as though this was something he had expected from the start.

Shi Guang coughed out gently to hide her awkwardness before stammering, ”W-Well… the angle wasn't right! And this thing isn't all that easy to catch anyway, and things will just drop with the slightest miscalculation! A few more times and I'll definitely get my hands on them!”

With that said, she started on a new round.

After three rounds, she still had nothing caught. She either failed to even catch them, or that they fell halfway even after she caught them.

A little defeated, she bemoaned out in a moody voice, ”It's not my skills that are lacking! This claw machine's claws are way too flimsy!”

Lu Yanchen turned around. With the sun shining down against him, she could not make out what his eyes were saying at all. However, she could see his lips curl in amusement. ”Oh.”

Shi Guang: ”…”

This guy was clearly looking down on her!

She puffed her cheeks. ”If you don't believe me, you can give it a try!”

Lu Yanchen looked at her and replied with a totally casual tone, ”Too easy.”

What!

Shi Guang grit her teeth and harrumphed coldly, ”Easy? If you manage to catch one up, I'll go home with you right away.”

Lu Yanchen's gaze bypassed her and landed on the claw machine before he reached out for it. Shi Guang immediately handed all her remaining tokens to him.

His tall, sturdy body bent over as he entered the tokens. As the music played, he started moving the joystick. Making his aim, he pressed on the button.

When the claw made its catch, Shi Guang's heart started racing. Her complex emotions had her both wanting Lu Yanchen to catch it and not.

The plushie swayed left and right, looking as though it could fall at any moment. Shi Guang tugged at Lu Yanchen's sleeves and exclaimed excitedly, ”It's falling! It's falling…!!”

And in the end, it did fall down—at the exit.
